Forethought.net Launched SilverLining

Many business owners continue to be wary of cloud computing and question its reliability, its benefits, and its true costs. In response, Denver-based FORETHOUGHT.net has launched SilverLining, an enterprise cloud computing solution with redundant backup, fault tolerance and disaster recovery services.

Scalable to customer needs, the suite of services frees companies to focus on their business, not their technology.

"With our solution, businesses can have the infrastructure of a Fortune 500 corporation without the overhead and costs associated with it," says Jawaid Bazyar, president of FORETHOUGHT.net. "We developed SilverLining to provide our customers with a full-service voice and data solution that saves them hundreds or thousands of dollars a month. It's hard enough to run a company without worrying about technology. It is our goal to make complex technology decisions simple."

SilverLining provides secure, reliable, flexible, Fortune-500 enterprise IT services for any size organization without the upfront investment and overhead. It supports email services, colocation, data backup, virtual desktops, bandwidth-intensive databases, website hosting, and more. Most SilverLining services can be scaled on the fly without disruption to business. Services are customized so that companies only pay for what they need. Cloud computing provides access to data and voice solutions anywhere, anytime with just an Internet connection and ensures business continuity in the face of adverse events.

"Many businesses still don't understand the benefits of cloud computing. Because of that, they may be spending too much money on an infrastructure that requires constant hardware updates and replacements," Bazyar says. "With cloud computing, businesses can even turn their old computers into thin clients with a simple Internet connection."

Powered by VMWare Enterprise License, FORETHOUGHT.net provides customers with money-saving solutions for a secure, fault-tolerant IT infrastructure as a service (IaaS) without capital expenditures or repetitive hardware upgrade cycles. In addition to cloud computing, the company offers hosted VoIP PBX business phone solutions, Internet connectivity with speeds as high as 100M up and down, and fax services.
